Morphological features and clinical significance of different types of tumor vessels in Gastric and

Breast Cancer

Purpose:

To study the features of morphology and clinical

significance of different types of tumor vessels in gastric (GC)

and breast cancer (BC).

Material and methods:

Tumor samples of 73 patients with GC

and 59 patients with BC were stained withMayer’s hematoxylin

andeosinandimmunohistochemically,usingantibodiestoCD34.

Results:

The following types of tumor vessels and structures

with endothelial lining were identified: normal capillaries, dilated

capillaries (DCs), atypical DCs (ADCs), “cavitary” structures type-

1 (CS type 1) – the structures with partial endothelial lining and

“cavitary” structures type-2 (CS type-2) – the distinctive cellular

structures in peritumoral stroma. The ADCs, CS type-1 and CS

type-2 most significantly correlated with the clinical features

of GC and BC. In GC the multiple CS type-1 and ADCs were

associated with T3-4 (p = 0.001) and N2 (p = 0.001) stages and

with a decrease of overall survival from 93.9% to 52.7% (p = 0,

0013) and relapse-free survival from87.7% to 32.4% (p = 0.0001);

in BC - with estrogen receptors negative status (p = 0.03), with

the presence of tumor emboli in vessels (p = 0.08) and with a

decreaseof relapse-free survival from85.7%to56.2% (p= 0.046).

As for the CS type-2, these structures were more often detected

in diffuse type of GC (p = 0.07). In BC the CS type-2 were more

often observed in positive Her2/new status (p = 0.008).

Conclusion:

In GC and BC the tumor vessels are heterogeneous

in morphology and clinical significance.
